You will be guided through the process of placing an order by a series of simple instructions on the Website. By entering into a contract with us you agree that we may send you invitations to review the products in your order.
- Our acceptance of your order
We will send to you an order confirmation email detailing the products you have ordered. Order acceptance and the completion of the contract between you and us will take place on the dispatch to you of the Products ordered unless we have notified you that we do not accept your order. Non-acceptance of an order may be a result of one of the following:
(a) The Product you ordered being unavailable from stock;
(b) Our inability to obtain authorisation for your payment;
(c) The identification of a pricing or Product description error;
(d) You not meeting the eligibility to order criteria set out in the main Registration section above. If you have already paid for the Products, we will refund you the full amount including any delivery costs charged as soon as possible.
- Consumer rights of return and refund
This clause only applies if you are a consumer.
Exercising your right to change your mind (Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013).
If you are a consumer, you have a legal right to cancel a Contract within 14 days and claim a refund. These rights, under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in these terms. Advice about your legal right to cancel the Contract is available from your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.
Your right to cancel a Contract starts from the date of the Dispatch Confirmation (the date on which we e-mail you to confirm our acceptance of your order), which is when the Contract between us is formed.
When you don’t have the right to change your mind.
The cancellation right referred to above does not apply in the case of:
(a) Products which have been personalised for you, such as stationery or gifts
(b) Perishable goods such as flowers or food
(c) Products that have been used
- How to let us know you wish to cancel a contract
To cancel a Contract, you just need to let us know that you have decided to cancel. The easiest way to do this is emailing us on sales@takefivearomatherapy.co.uk. If you use this method we will e-mail you to confirm we have received your cancellation. Alternatively you may call us on 07837 674449.
If you send us your cancellation notice by e-mail, then your cancellation is effective from the date you send us the e-mail. For example, you will have given us notice in time as long as you e-mail us before midnight on that day.
- What happens if you cancel a contract
If you cancel your Contract we will:
(a) refund you the price you paid for the Products. However, please note we are permitted by law to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
(b) refund any delivery costs you have paid, although, as permitted by law, the maximum refund will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer (provided that this is a common and generally acceptable method).
(c) make any refunds due to you as soon as possible and in any event within the deadlines indicated below:
(i) if you have received the Product and we have not offered to collect it from you: 14 days after the day on which we receive the Product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the Product back to us.
(ii) if you have not received the Product or you have received it and we have offered to collect it from you: 14 days after you inform us of your decision to cancel the Contract. If you have returned the Products to us because they are faulty or mis-described, we will refund the price of the Products in full, together with any applicable delivery charges, and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the item to us.
We will refund you using the Paypal account used by you to pay.
- How to return products to us
If a Product has been delivered to you before you decide to cancel your Contract then you must return it to us without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days after the day on which you let us know that you wish to cancel the Contract. Unless the Product is faulty or not as described, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the Products to us. If the Product is one which cannot be returned by post, we estimate that if you use the carrier which delivered the Product to you, these costs should not exceed the sums we charged you for delivery.
- What happens if the products are faulty or not as described
Because you are a consumer, we are under a legal duty to supply Products that are in conformity with this Contract. As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to Products that are faulty or not as described. These legal rights are not affected by your right of return and refund in this clause or anything else in these Conditions. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.
- What is the price and when do you pay
All prices are in pounds sterling £ inclusive of the current rate of Value Added Tax VAT applied in the UK (where applicable) and are correct at the time of entering the information onto the system. The total cost of your order is the price of the Product(s) ordered plus delivery charges as set out in the Delivery section of this Website. Payment can be made by any of the methods specified in the Payment section of this Website and payment will be debited and cleared from your account as set out in the Payment section of this Website. Prices may change at any time prior to acceptance of your order.
You confirm that the credit or debit card or Paypal account that is being used is yours. You must ensure that the expiry date of your payment card is after the anticipated dispatch of your order. All credit/debit cardholders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to or does not, for any reason, authorise payment to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.
- What happens if the price of the products is wrong
Our Website contains a large number of Products. It is always possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, some of the Products on our Website may be incorrectly priced. If we discover an error in the price of the Products you have ordered we will contact you to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Product at the correct price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing. Please note that if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Products to you at the incorrect (lower) price

These dates are not guaranteed. Delivery dates are subject to goods being in stock. Delivery dates may be subject to events outside our control and these are described below.
- High value goods
High Value goods may be subject to additional carriage charges and delivery times may vary. Individual rates and delivery times will be included in the product information for each individual item. Some higher priced products may be subject to an additional insurance charge to cover special delivery costs. This cost will be displayed prior to checkout.
- International deliveries
We cannot be held responsible should local customs authorities wish to confiscate any particular item or charge any import duty. The recipient is responsible for paying the duty. Delivery charges are based on calculated volumetric weight and delivery destination and will be quoted during the checkout process prior to your order being charged. Delivery charges vary depending on the type of products ordered and the service you select and cannot be refunded. We cannot be held accountable for delays in customs clearance. You must comply with all applicable laws and regulations of the country for which the Products are destined. We will not be liable or responsible if you break any such law. UK VAT is not due where the delivery is made to a destination outside the EU.
- What happens if we miss the delivery date
If we miss any prior agreed delivery deadline for any Products then you may cancel your Order straight away if any of the following apply:
(a) we have failed to deliver the Products;
(b) delivery within the delivery deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or
(c) you told us before we accepted your order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential. If you do not wish to cancel your order straight away, or do not have the right to do so, you can give us a new deadline for delivery, which must be reasonable, and you can cancel your Order if we do not meet the new deadline. If you do choose to cancel your Order for late delivery, you can do so for just some of the Products or all of them, unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. If the Products have been delivered to you, you will have to return them to us or allow us to collect them, and we will pay the costs of this. After you cancel your Order we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled Products and their delivery.
- Orders subject to availability
All orders are subject to availability. We shall inform you if any item(s) in your order are not available, and where possible give an estimated date of delivery. We feature products on our website that have been carefully selected for Online Shopping. Once an item is sold out it will be taken off the website at the earliest opportunity and may not be available again. Prices of products may change from time to time. If items that you order are out of stock, subject to a delay or the price is higher than that shown on your order, we will try to contact you at the email address you provided when placing your order. If we cannot contact you or receive no response to our email, we will continue to process the remaining items on your order. All items are subject to availability. If, due to unforeseen circumstances, it is necessary to substitute an item, the item will be of equal or greater value than that which it replaces.
